- Restart your Mac: Sometimes, simply restarting your device can resolve issues like this. To restart your Mac, click on the Apple menu in the top left corner of the screen, and then select "Restart."
- Check your Mac's settings: Make sure that the "Prevent computer from sleeping automatically when the display is off" option is turned off in your Mac's Energy Saver settings. To access these settings, click on the Apple menu in the top left corner of the screen, select "System Preferences," and then click on "Energy Saver."
- Check for a software update: Make sure that your Mac is running the latest version of macOS. You can check for updates by going to the App Store, clicking on the "Updates" tab, and then installing any available updates.
